Summary: | The power clean and its variations are prescribed by strength and conditioning coaches as part of the 'big three' to develop "total body strength". This article explores the application of the power clean and its variations to athletic performance and introduces strength and conditioning coaches to teaching progressions, with specific emphasis on developing the correct body positioning required for the power clean.
